If You Love Something... Let It Go.
Chapter 4.
I walked into the great hall for breakfast the next morning and instead of going straight to the Ravenclaw table, I strode over to the Gryffindor one. I saw my sister, Harry and Ron sitting near the middle of the table, when I reached them I heard Hermione say,
“Yes, it is, but it’s not the only worthwhile thing,” they must be talking about their futures after leaving Hogwarts, “I mean, if I could take SPEW further …”
“Oh my god Hermy, don’t you even think about doing something so stupid, not to mention a complete waste of time.” I piped up which made them all jump and turn towards me, the boys with shocked looks on their faces and Hermione with an angry scowl.
“Harley, SPEW is not a waste of time! It gives house elves the right to work for money! Or not work at all.” She said in protest.
“Yes Hermy it is. Seriously for a know it all, you don’t know that much about their morals or anything do you?”
“Yes I do!”
“No! You don’t! Because if you did you would KNOW that they like working the way that they do! It’s what they do!” with that I stormed off fuming that my sister, who is supposed to be smart, is acting like a stupid cow! I mean seriously everything lives like they do for a reason!
Once I reached my table I sat down aggressively in one of the seats, not bothering to sit next to anyone because they would jut piss me off more. I grabbed a couple of slices of toast and placed them on my plate and then covered it with butter. I looked up from what I was doing to lock eyes with Malfoy, which seems to be a common thing as of late. I decided to ignore his stares and went back to eating, looking down at my plate. The only time that I looked up was when Bailey and Ryan slumped down in the seats either side of me.
Bailey looked excited and was waving a thing of parchment in the air, it was probably her schedule.
“What classes do you have?” She asked excitedly
“I don’t know I haven’t gone to get them off of Flitwick yet.” I said
“Well, quick! Go and get your schedule off of him. Now! Mush!” she exclaimed over excitedly.
“Alright, alright, im going” with that I got out of my seat and headed towards the teachers table. Once I spotted Professor Flitwick barely visible behind a stack of parchment, I rushed over to him.
“Ahh Miss Granger, here to get your schedule I presume?”
“Yes Professor.”
“Here you go, have a good day.” Once I grabbed the slip of parchment from his hand I looked at it and read.
Monday:
1. History of Magic: Professor Binns
2. Potions: Professor Snape
3. Divination: Professor Trelawney
Lunch
4. Defence against the Dark Arts: Professor Umbridge
5. Transfiguration: Professor McGonagall
6. Charms: Professor Flitwick
Dinner.
I walked over to Bailey and Ryan and showed them my timetable.
“We only have 3, 4 and 5 together” Bailey said frowning.
“And we have 1, 2 and 6 together” Ryan said.
“Bailey simply because we have 3 out of 6 subjects together on a Monday doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world; don’t forget Herbology, Astronomy and Care of Magical Creatures.” With saying that Bailey face lit up, completely happy with the thought of having 3 more classes together, which im sure we do, simply because there’s only 1 Care of Magical Creatures class and one Astronomy class, as for Herbology, who knows!
“Alright let’s go to class.” I looked up and locked eyes with Malfoy one last time before we all walked out of the Great Hall and towards class.
